posted Jul 30, 2013, 10:42 AM by Dick Clark

Governor Pat McCrory signed H937 into law today, ending the legal prohibition on the use of legal firearms silencers while hunting in an otherwise lawful manner. A National Rifle Association omnibus bill that makes numerous changes to gun laws in North Carolina, H937 goes into effect on October 1, 2013. The NRA-ILA characterizes the bill as "the most comprehensive pro-gun reform bill in the Tar Heel State's history since 1995."
